Scottish War Blinded
The motion
That the Parliament commends Scottish War Blinded for expanding its work to help veterans to the Kirkcaldy area; understands that two-thirds of its members say that their sight loss had resulted in them experiencing loneliness; notes that the charity provides tailored one-on-one support and rehabilitation as well as a monthly lunch group to help overcome social isolation, and acknowledges the continued efforts of its outreach worker, Stephen Greig, to help veterans in Kirkcaldy.
